So you don't have those black corner filler pieces at all, huh? Pretty sure my bumpers are '72. They're drawn in like yours. The corner piece has a couple of clips on the back side that go into the holes in the recessed portion of the front fender. Were yours filled in?

.....if that's even what it's called. The one on my '73 Challenger is sort of flared out (upper right corner of fender portion). I can bend it back over the plate, but it won't stay. Solution=heat gun? If not, I haven't seen anything online as to a source, except for a pair of NOS silver...

There ya go. Good idea!

Thank you. Yes, I agree that is an option, however, I'm trying to go for the right look. What do you think about ported vs. manifold vacuum?

I had read that the Edelbrock 1406 "self-vents" through the air cleaner. But vapors from the gas tank would still be sucked in, right? And isn't it connected to ported vaccuum?

That seemed logical to me too. Although routing through the air cleaner should accomplish the same thing, right?

I'm trying to re-establish the charcoal canister to my '73 Challenger, as it was deleted when I bought the car. I have an Edelbrock 1406 carbeurator, the one without the bowl vent. And the 3 nipple canister. I understand the purge line needs to go to ported vacuum. What about the line...

That's what I did. It's on the car and everything seems fine.

Well i was looking for the correct MC, with the rounded edge, and they had it, so....... They had the other ones for half the money, yes. I've just never seen a Mopar with that blue mark on it. While we're on the MC topic, I was getting ready to bench bleed it with the tubes and what-not...

I spoke to the company yesterday, and they said the blue swatch is an inspection mark. Really??

yes it does: 3699263

Was looking to swap out my master cylinder ('73 Challenger 340 w/brake booster). Ordered a new "factory correct" one from Jim's Auto Parts in NH. Paid over $200 for it. It has a splotch of blue paint on the front of the MC, and some on the engine side. It's Sunday and I can't call them, so I...

hey all, for some reason, when I bought my '73 challenger, the windshield washing system was non-existant. I've replaced all the components, and have located the hot brown wire that goes to the pump. In my buddy's '73 Cuda, he's got a 2 part connector that connects the power lead on the pump...

They were on the car when I bought it. Not sure who made them.
